PiNXSEA

Before arriving on earth as Cherri's new roommate, Pinx originally lived in your typical fantasy isekai world, Citrine, as a rural elf, on the outskirts of the small Kingdom of Draconycan. Before becoming infected with a werefruit* at 16, pinx did odd jobs around town to make ends meet for food, usually involving small dungeon dives for meager loot. They were regarded as a bit of a nuisance, especially due to their growing friendship with the kingdom's heiress, Aurora.

Sometime during the summer season, Aurora and Pinx were deep in the castles library, exploring a room that was normally locked but had for some reason been left ajar. Within the depths of the library, Aurora started looking through a pile of documents stacked on top of a dusty old shelf. Grabbing a few papers in her hand and jumping back down, she threw them on a nearby table so she and Pinx could look through them. They both almost immediately locked their eyes on a bright red X peeking out from the bottom of the stack. They slid the other documents aside to get a better look at what they now see is a map - one that seems to depict ruins that existed only in old town rumors. The revelation that these ruins might be real immediately struck a cord with Aurora, who grabbed the map without hesitation and urged Pinx to follow her...

After a day of preparation, the two set out on a journey they both believed should take no more than a few hours to complete if the map was to be believed. Aurora decided they should avoid telling anyone, since they were both a bit too old to be out looking for a place that only exists in children's stories. The map may be proof enough to them, but the idea that anyone could possibly see her as being childish enough to believe a rumor even with proof was enough of a reason for them to keep this journey a secret, at least it was in her mind. Pinx somewhat agreed, knowing that being seen dragging Aurora on a wild theory chase would only make their reputation as a troublemaker that much worse. That, and she would likely need some kind of support to keep her from getting lost or being alone if she got hurt. They both packed enough food to last about half a day, and set out on their journey.

After walking a few feet into the woods they grew up surrounded by, Pinx focused on the map as Aurora eagerly stepped ahead. It didn't take but a few minutes for the pair to start having to rely exclusively on the map, the depths they've reached already being farther than either had been before. It seemed now the map was quite... stylized, as the distance between landmarks seemed to be miles further apart than it had indicated. Aurora nearly suggested they turn back, but curiosity had taken too deep a hold in her heart. She bit her tongue and chewed on the remainder of her snacks instead, deciding the hunger was the only thing making her doubt the journey. So what if it's a day or two longer than they planned? She can just tell her parents she took another dungeon diving job without telling them again. Pinx, however, was starting to worry about their ability to read the map properly. If the landmarks are so far apart, what's to stop them from taking a wrong turn? If they press much further, will they have the energy to make the trip back? They start to voice these concerns to Aurora, but as they break through a particularly thick wall of foliage, the pair start sliding down a rather steep cliffside.

Landing in a crash at the bottom knocks them both out for a few hours until early dawn the next day, Aurora being the first to recover. She pushes herself off the ground and assesses the damage. Pinx is unconscious but seems otherwise fine, the map is muddy and torn, and they're both extremely dirt-covered and bruised up. But neither seems to have broken bones, and surprisingly no major cuts. Pinx stirs awake during Aurora's assessment time, and starts freaking out about their supplies, the map, and generally the entire situation they're in. Aurora tries to comfort Pinx, but she's honestly pretty worried as well. The cliff is too steep to climb, and behind them is just another veil of greenery that blocks what lies behind it. They both take a minute to recover what they can from the fall - there's no food left, Aurora still has her knife that she keeps on her belt, and their clothes seem to only be cosmetically damaged. Realizing they don't have many other options, Aurora starts trying to cut through some of the greenery to start their new path.

A week has passed since their tumble. Surviving off of the fresh water streams and a few seasonal berry bushes, the pair are growing desperate, scared, and tired. They've barely managed to keep from fighting, both blaming each other for their current situation but neither wanting to lose their only survival partner. The forest has long since been unrecognizable, the endless maze seeming unrealistic at this point. A journey straight through the woods normally takes only 4 days, and yet going in one direction for so long has them both deeper in the forest than they've ever thought possible. Plants they've never even heard of before now surround them, even the creatures seeming odder than the normal fauna that surrounds their kingdom. Yet none of this really registers to them, their hunger being the only thing either one can really think of now. Stumbling through the suffocating flora overgrowth, something familiar hits their noses. Without a word, they both start pressing forward with newfound intention. Neither could have named the smell if you asked them, the closest word likely being "home."

Breaking through one final barrier of vines and bushes, the sudden clear bright sunlight was blinding. Blinking the pain away, their eyes started to focus. They were in an oasis. This large clearing in what seems to be the dead center of the densest part of the forest was the home to a large pond, which was being fed by a small waterfall coming from a small overarching cliff above, the plateau steadying into a gentle hill in the back. On top of the cliff at either side of the river stands 4 large trees, each one with wildly colorful leaves, and all 4 bearing a variety of fruits. No two fruits seemed to be the same, though some on different trees surprisingly shared similarities. Aurora and Pinx nearly trampled each other running up the hill, aurora ran for the closest tree while pinx hopped over the little waterfall river over to the second tree, grabbing the first fruit they could get their hands on and biting straight through the tough skin. The spines on the outside didn't register in their mind, the hydration of the juice and the flavor of the meat of the weird dragonfruit-looking fruit flooded their senses instead. Aurora tore her way through a strangely clear papaya, the inner purple meat satisfying a hunger deeper than starvation. It took less than a minute for the pair to remove their respective meals from existence. It took only a few seconds for their transformations to commence.

Aurora rises into the air, a glow emanating from her skin. She tries to cry out for Pinx, but her voice is replaced with a feeling that can only be described as drowning in air. Out of the corner of her eye, she can see a bright pink flash from where Pinx should have been. The light of her own glowing forces her to shut her eyes, feeling the light tangibly wrap around her skin and seep in. Before she can really register any kind of pain though, it all seems to stop. She floats back down to the ground, landing on her hands and knees. Her skin has a slight shimmer to it, but its already seemingly fading away. The feeling of the grass on the palms of her hands feels different, and she lifts her left hand up to take a look. Her skin seems weird, covered in little lines and grooves that only stick out if you stare, but they feel almost sticky. Not in a wet way, but in that way that a lizard can stick to a tree, just... sticky. A dog-like whine breaks her out of her focus, and she looks over to see Pinx.

While Aurora was undergoing her transformation, Pinx was going through their own. Before Pinx could respond to the cut-off cry that came from their friend, their vision is filled with a pink light, not realizing it's their eyes themselves glowing. The sudden blindness causes them to fall forward, along with the sudden feeling of something tearing out of the bottom of their spine and through their skin, breaking out into a large weight on either side of them. Their arms and legs ached with a pain they couldnt describe, and with the last of their cognizance, they rolled themself into the nearby water to soothe the feeling. The pain quickly subsided, replaced with the immediate fear of drowning despite the small depth, and they dragged themself out of the stream back onto the bank next to Aurora, whining at the aching moving to their head.

Aurora watched as Pinx, or something that looked a lot like them, reached a pattern-covered hand up to their head, pulling back for a moment at the oddity their hand landed on before going back in to confirm what they had felt. Both hands shot to their head, patting two new wolf-like ears on the top of their head. That realization made them turn around to inspect what that new weight on their spine might be. In addition to two new ears, Pinx had grown two large two-tone tails, both of which seemed to be frowning? Upon closer inspection, they found that both tails were hiding mouths at the end, opening at the seam where the two colors met on either side of each tail. None of these realizations seemed to be scaring Pinx, in fact, Aurora believed she saw a spark in Pinx's eye she could swear she's never seen before. That fact seemed to disturb Aurora, as her own transformation disgusted her. She looks back at the trees that fed them, noticing that the other fruits on the trees seem to have fallen and rotted away while the two were distracted. An old legend enters her mind- no, an old children's tale. something that couldn't possible be true, and yet... here they were, deep in the woods, lost and starving as some mystical oasis reveals itself to them, only to feed them with cursed fruits - werefruits. A natural phenomenon so rare and hunted when they do occur, they were thought to be myths. And yet, she realized now why laws still referenced the banishment of those who consume them - they're real. And dear heavens, she just consumed one.

Before she could voice any of this to Pinx, she suddenly heard a distant voice. Pinx's new ears perked up, swiveling towards the sound. Aurora couldn't quite make it out, but Pinx insisted they heard someone calling Aurora's name. How they could possibly have heard that baffles her, but the voice is a little familiar. Neither one hesitates, they both make a mad dash for the edge of the oasis, crawling back through the break in the wall they had made. The usual darkness on the other side was replaced with incredibly familiar woods, seeming to be right behind the castle. Neither one wasted a second running towards the voice, breaking out into the castle gardens and seeing Aurora's father sitting on a bench near the fountain. Aurora ran right for her dad, Pinx made it halfway before Aurora's dad, the King, threw her behind his back and put an arm out to block Pinx. They were accused of having kidnapped Aurora, who surprisingly did not protest the claim. For this crime, and for the obvious crime of having both consumed a forbidden werefruit and forcing the princess to witness the transformation, Pinx was sentenced to be magically banished via a random teleport spell. No trial was held, and the banishment was preformed only a few short days after the pair returned. Aurora kept her transformation a secret, later into her adulthood her odd magical attributes would be credited to her royal bloodline and dutiful studies. The distance of the spell was greatly miscalculated, sending Pinx a few galaxies away instead of a few kingdoms. Arriving on Earth, Pinx landed on the balcony of one Cherri Berri Pawpinz, immediately cementing themself as their new roommate. Cherri didn't really protest Pinx's impromptu introduction into her life, as something about their magical attributes seemed oddly familiar in a way she intended on discovering. Also, this weird dog elf dude from space is surprisingly loyal to her, and with her weird stalker being bolder lately, the new addition to her home is kind of good timing.

After living with Cherri for a few years, the both of them decide to invest in a gaming computer for Pinx so they stop downloading malware on Cherri's laptop. This leads to something new: Pinx discovers the world of gaming, streaming, and gaming with FRIENDS over the INTERNET?!?? Abandoning the idea of returning to their home world, Pinx is perfectly content and happier living as their new self, embracing their new life with Cherri, their sentient werefruit parasite, and their online friends. A world of lonely magic is nothing compared to a loving reality. Pinx also frequently visits their new friends around the world, abusing their parasitic magic to traverse the normal world in a myriad of silly ways.

Pinxsea, Sora, & other friends formed the initial members of Hibiscast.

Pinxsea updated to their V.2 model, a redesign of their original V.1 model to align with their updated art-style and lore.

In July of that same year, Pinxsea again updated to their V.3 model, which came with a short animatic explaining the change. Their new model includes more earth-like clothing, including ripped jean-shorts and a sweater bearing a heartbeat monitor/star design. The most drastic change to their design was the changing of their eye color, a result of trying to blend in slightly on Earth with a more "normal" look, and somewhat matching their roommate's eye's. Their old outfit is still in the closet, and they will sometimes change into it if asked on stream, though it's still just their new model wearing the old clothes.

• Pinxsea's model was designed, modeled, and textured by Pinxsea, using Procreate & Vroid, with additional help from Saiko_Sora for the blendshapes and Tynkerbelle for the collar modeling and texturing.
• Pinx has a variety of PNG Reactive models they switch between, most of which were drawn by them or made using their 3D model. There is currently one exception; a 2d PNGtuber model drawn by LaughingKitsune.
• A large portion of Pinxsea's PNG models are made as fan-models for popular media, such as Hatsune Miku and Fionna Campbell, those ones being made available publicly on their ko-fi page.
